A contractor is in charge of hiring people for a construction project. The number of days it would take to complete the project

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$\text{Domain of x}=[1,\infty), x \in Z^+$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function: $f(x)=\dfrac{280}{x},$ where:$

f(x) =number of days it would take to complete the project

x =number of full-time workers.

$\text{When x=0, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{0}=$Undetermined\\\text{When x=1, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{1}=$280 days\\\text{When x=280, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{280}=$1 day\\\text{When x=560, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{560}=$0.5 days$

The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable.

In this case, the independent variable is x, the number of full-time workers. We have shown that x cannot be zero as there must be at least a worker on ground.

Therefore, an appropriate domain of the function f(x) is the set of positive integers (from 1 to infinity).

$\text{Domain of x}=[1,\infty), x \in Z^+$

Two men walk at rates of 6 miles per hour and 10 miles per hour, respectively. Simultaneously, they started from the same place

alina1380 [7]

The time taken by the two men will be equal to 26 hours

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance traveled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.

here two men are walking at different speeds like

v₁=6 miles per hour

v₂=10 miles per hour

The time taken by them to separated by the distance of 100 miles each so that both of them separated by the distance of 200 miles.

t₁= {100}/{6}=16.66 hours

t₂= {100}/{10}=10 hours

total time taken will be

t₁+t₂=16.66+10=26.66 hours

Find the value of b in the graph of y=3x+b if it is known that the graph goes through the point: N(0,5)

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

I believe b is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you place the points in the values, you get 5=3(0)+b. When you simplify it, you get 5=b. I really hope this is correct, I apologize if it isn't! I hope this helps! :)

Solve 3(x - 4) = 11x

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

$x = \frac{-3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 4) = 11x

Expand the brackets:

3x - 12 = 11x

Subtract 3x from both sides to isolate the -12:

3x - 12 = 11x

3x - 3x - 12 = 11x - 3x

-12 = 8x

8x = -12

Divide both sides by 8:

$\\\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{-12}{8}\\x = \frac{-12}{8}\\$

Simplify fraction:

$x = \frac{-12}{8}$

$x = \frac{-12 \div 4}{8 \div 4}\\x = \frac{-3}{2}$

Hope this helps!
